We have a Job Board to share with our members interesting openings.

We are excited to share that we recently posted a request for new organizers on LinkedIn, and the response has been fantastic! So far, we’ve received 14 enthusiastic responses from highly qualified individuals who are eager to be part of this new venture.

We’re especially thrilled to have heard from two individuals based in Rome who are excited about joining our team. Their local expertise and passion for our mission will be invaluable as we expand into in-person gatherings.

We’re truly grateful for the overwhelming interest we’ve received and can’t wait to see what the future holds for our chapter with such talented and dedicated individuals on board.
